    This is really embarrassing. Like more embarrassing than not being able to get their papers delivered.

    Can't wait for the Clinton, Sanders and Cruz editions.

    I don't know. I kind of like it. They should do one for every candidate to show how asinine some of their rhetoric is.

    A little unseemly for the Globe to do it, but whatevs.

    So, Bernie Sanders gets 56% of the vote in the Wyoming Caucus and is awarded a decisive seven delegates.

    Hillary Clinton gets 44% of the vote and has to settle for... seven delegates.

    My God, it's the Everybody-Wins-Prizes school of political campaigning!

    Does anyone think they will do this for the other candidates? I sure don't.

    Why would they? It's an editorial in which they're using satire to help illustrate why Trump would be a scary guy to elect president.

    Of course, the Globe might (but doesn't necessarily) have similar angst about other candidates.

    In hindsight, it is a joke.

    Somehow, I don't think that's gonna happen.

    I wouldn't say unseemly as much as cheesy and amateurish. Would work fine for a college paper.

    Trump is the most repugnant pig to run for president in recorded history, and he's being defended on the grounds the criticisms are "cheesy," "amateurish" and "classless."

    A fucking animal who has spewed out nothing except fecal bile his whole campaign, and we're supposed to worry about hurting his sensitive whittle fee-fees.

    Didn't think of his feelings, but once the conversation veered toward professional journalism, you were bound to be confused.

    The "professional journalism" train left the station many moons ago, when the right wing corporatists who control the media ordered that Trump was to be power-fellated 24/7 on virtually all outlets.
